Why I want to do this!

I am a fan of many things. I am especially fond of Science Fiction and fantasy, and with that many of the off shoots that often come with that, like Gaming etc. . .

I have been intrigued by these fringe fictions/ TV shows/ Movies for as long as I can remember. I have been told that I have watched Doctor Who regularly since I was two years old. I honestly can't remember not knowing what Doctor Who was. I was raised on a steady diet of Adventure and Science fiction movies and TV, from Masters of the Universe and Star Wars, to the occasional (I never really caught the Star Trek Bug) Star Trek episode or movie etc. I have Been a raging Fanboy for as long as I can remember.

This blog is two things for me. First I want it to be a memoir of my experiences of being a fan, thoughts about what I experienced mostly focusing on being a young doctor who fan in the US during the 80s. Second I will talk about my fandom now, and how I feel about fandom, as well as Genre fiction, TV, movies, and anything else that I think may be interesting and relevant.
